As a child she read Black Beauty by Anna Sewell,The Water Babies by Charles Kingsley and Little Womenby Louisa M. Alcott.

Enid Blyton enjoyed myths and legends, poetry and annuals, as well as magazines like Strand Magazine and Punch. She was fascinated by Arthur Mee's Children's Encyclopaedia.

She found Grimm's fairy-tales frightening and, although she liked Hans Christian Andersen's stories, she thought some of them were "too sad." Among her favourite books were Lewis Carroll's "Alice" books and R. M. Ballantyne's The Coral Island.

The book she loved the most, and read at least a dozen times, was The Princess and the Goblin by George MacDonald.
